Those Sidewalks
Ed Tue Independent
Can you explain to mo the rules
under which sidewalks aro being
laid don n on our public thorough
fares Alapai street between King
and Beretania streets a thorough
fare used by numerous vehicles be
sides the carts and draya from the
quarries on Punohbowl has never
yet boea ornamented with a decent
Bidewalk while Kawaiahao Lane
can now boast of a sidewalk that
takes up half of that unfrequented
lane and which is built in an elabor
ate stylo with stone curbiug etc
Alapai
The only rules guiding the road
department aro those who favor any
body with a pull Hence an elabor
ate sidewalk on the lane which leads
to a church and no sidewalk on Ala

A Query
The Independent
Can you inform me through your
valuable columns whether tenders
for the building of a patrol wagon
for the Police Department havo
been called for or whether Marshal
Brown ordered the wagon in San
Francisco without giving tbo local
manufacturers a chance to bid for
the job The price of the wagon
will surely be over 500 and I un
derstand that all government work
above that price ahold be given out
by contract
I would also like to know whether
the new Police stable mentioned in
a recent issue of your paper is to be
build under contract Tenders for
that job were called for sometimes
ago and if I remtmber rightly the
lowest bid was that of EBThomas
The contraot was not given out at
the time howevpr
I will bo much obliged if you can
enlighteu me on these subjects

Will Mr Howell or Marshal
Brown kindly condescend to answer
the questions of our correnpoudeut

Through the Roof
Deputy Marshal Chilliugworth is
nursing a sore arm and will not he
able to make raids for come days
A few nights ago he decided to raid
a den on Maunakea htreet in which
gambling has going on for the last
sis years and where every attempt
to enter on the part of the police
has been frustrated
The house is situated back from
Maunakba street makai of King
street and tho approach to it is
through a winding narrow lane
which finally ends in an entrauce
through whioh only men without
superflouB flesh can squeeze
Chillingworth and his mn suc
ceeded to pass through the
narrow road which loads to the
olub but although there are
fourteen doors on the buildiug none
of them could be opened from
the outside The Deputy Marshal
then olimbed onto the roof with in
tention of forcing an entrance that
way While ho was tearing tho
shingles of rafters and timbers gave
way and he fell about twenty feet
landing on the gambling table
around whioh over fifty Chinego
wore seated In his fall he fortun
ately only hurt his arm and was
stunned for a few moments while
the Chinese were simply paralyzed
by his awkward appearance The
officers hearing the orash broke the
doors down from the outside and
rescued their gallant chief and at
tho same time bagged twenty Chi
nese and the gambling parapher
nalias It will be some time before
Chillingworth attempts another
dime novel sensatiou

GROCERY PHILOSOPHY
It isnt uncommon at all for folks
to say No old KONA coffee comes
here and when discussing oil those
same doubters say its cotton seed
oil
Theyre right theres nothing
genuine in the world everythings
a sham every person is a hypocrite
Borne folks think
You have often heard it said The
best fruits of California go eaBt and
the ordinary is consumed at home
Yet when speaking of coffees and
olive oils these same wise acres tell
you the ohoicest is kept at home
and the ordinary exported
